I bought my 2006 AWD w/ 118k miles on it for $9k as a "mechanic's special" from a Jaguar Dealership in Annapolis back in January. It needed fog lights, an alignment, rear axel seal and the infamous front diff carrier bearing noise is just starting on it (I'm gonna rebuild the diff myself this spring)

AWD too I take it? If it's really clean and needs nothing it might be worth around that price, seemed kinda high to me at first but KBB puts it at $10,500 here, go for it you'll love it

Yeah its AWD, don't know too much about it other than the online ad, KBB is the same on it here but theres always room for negotiation. Thing that makes me love it is that blue, you don't see many that color and i believe its the same blue as my tahoe. May be a pointless conversation anyway since I'm currently in the process of buying a house so I'm pretty tied up financially, but a man can dream right. Just kinda throwin ideas around in my head incase the near future doesn't involve the tahoe and figured id share also.

I feel your pain brother! I just sold my beloved 2005 Silverado SS since I got a company car with my new job and my wife and I are trying to save to buy our first home...

All escalades and denalis of this generation are AWD AFAIK

Nope they made 2wd Escalades in the early years those had the 5.3 in 05 it appears they dropped the 5.3 and all you could get was the 6.0 in 2wd or AWD not sure about the Denali

You are correct sir, and why anyone would spend top dollar on a Caddy with no sack is beyond me...

I'm saying the LQ9 is a great engine having to use 93 is the only real downside

That would actually be easier on me since I use 93 in my nnbs and so when i go to the pump and accidentally hit the 87 becuz i think I'm in the nbs, i wouldn't have to get severely pissed real quick lol.
